Most antidepressents, anxiety, panic, meds will affect your sex drive. My husband was on prozac (for bi-polar) it didn't help him out at all...I was on Paxil for 3 yrs for anxiety/panic attacks. Be very careful when going off of meds like this...you have to do it gradually or you can have some horrible withdrawls...I cut my paxil in half for a year before I decided I didn't need it anymore (quit my job with an a$$hole boss and stress went away) My doctor told me that because I had cut myself down to 10 mgs that I could just stop taking it...O...MY...GOD!!! I went through such horrible withdrawls I thought death would be better!! I lost 2 weeks of work, my husband had to take a medical leave to stay home with me...I thought I was losing my mind...I honestly don't know how drug addicts can do this all the time...

PLEASE, PLEASE...don't just stop taking it...I would talk to you doc first.
